my niece is fighting other kids
How do you discipline your kids? I’ve been raising her since she was 2 years old.
Her adviser messaged me today, saying that she has been fighting with other kids and even tinapon niya yung lunch ng kaklase niya. She's only 6 years old, and she's also the only kid in our house.
I don't know how she learned to do this kasi never naman siya minaltrato sa bahay. Hindi rin siya kailanman pinagbuhatan ng kamay. She always gets what she wants whenever she wants something. She also took some of her adviser's food supplies from the classroom.
I don't know what to do with her kasi she's never like this at home. Wala rin siyang kaaway dito, so I never really had to discipline her too harshly because she's generally well-behaved at home. Marunong din siyang makinig sa akin. When I ask her to draw or watch something, nakikinig naman siya.
Sometimes, when I ask her about school, vague lang yung mga sinasabi niya sa akin. She already knows how to hide things well. There was one time when she told me about fighting with other kids. Nagalit ako sa kanya—not to the point na galit na galit, but I sounded disappointed. Pinagsabihan ko siya na huwag nang gawin ulit.
But most of the time, she watches Minecraft videos. Maybe I should limit her screen time.
Tell me, mommies, paano niyo ba pinagsasabihan or dinidisiplina yung mga anak niyo? I'm worried that whenever I ask her how things went at school, she'll just hide these bad things from me again.
